Home?

Home is an amazing place, where anyone can feel themselves and comfortable. Home is an awesome thing to have. Now to start the story. One day a young girl used to live in an apartment. She would have a lot of fun, but Luna could not really do everything she wanted to do because Luna and her family were renting. She did not really feel as secure as she would have liked. The apartment was fun, but Luna really wanted her own space. When Luna found out that she was moving to her own house with her family, she was very excited, but sad at the same time. She had to leave all her friends from school. On the other hand, she was happy to have her own space. Once Luna and her family were done packing their belongings, she asked them, “when are we moving?” Her mom replied, “tomorrow.” The next day, once Luna moved, she was truly exited! What home means and brings for me is joy, personal space, and excitement. I am certainly glad that I have my own house to make my own memories with my family. When I moved houses again, I was very sad because of all the great memories I had made there. I hope that Habitat for Humanity helps many more people get their own space. THE END!
